Compressors

Optimize compressor reliability and performance with SKF

Used for station air, soot blowing, and instrument air, power plant compressors differ based on plant design, equipment age and system configurations. Whether centrifugal, reciprocating, screw, or some combination thereof, all of these compressors operate under harsh conditions.

Power plant compressors endure exposure to high temperatures, vibration levels and speeds. So do the large electric motors working within them. These motors are critical to the power generation process, but are commonly suffer damage from electrical arcing and currents.
